Office Ribbon functionality - C# Discussion Boards

hi,
sorry to disturb you again.actually i think text file won't be the ideal solution for me.the data you see before is from a finger print device.i can grasp it easily from the machine.i already tried to insert it into database but from the text file by using bulk insert.the problem is i will make update to the txt.file everytime an employee checked out or in.

I'm thinking now to make a database and make update on it or trigger.
I want to as how to grasp the data from the machine and insert into the database directly?
i just need steps...

thanks alot,
emmy,

Few companies that installed computers to reduce the employment of clerks have realized their expectations.... They now need more and more expensive clerks even though they call them "Developers" or "Programmers."

You need to first bind the datatable with the combo box.
It should be something like this:

combobox1.DataSource = dt;
//Then set the datamember and valuemember as follows:

combobox1.DataMember = "Description";
combobox1.ValueMember = "Value";

//This will work...
And if not just write the value member first and then the data member...

Hi everyone

Pleasae can someone help me. I have created a custom ribbon and am trying to implement it in an ExcaleAddIn and have created all the neccessary xml for it along with it's events as follows:
<pre><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<customUI onLoad="Ribbon_Load" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui">
<ribbon>

</group>
</tab>
</tabs>
</ribbon>
</customUI>

I have also created the callbacks for the OnAction event as such:
<pre>public void OnActionCallback(Office.IRibbonControl control, bool isPressed)
{

if (control.Id == "btnNewVersion_Click")
{
//MessageBox.Show("You clicked " + control.Id);
Form frmNewModel = new Form();
frmNewModel.Show();
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("You clicked a different control.");
}
}

But i still can't get any functionailty out of it. I have successfully added the ribbon to the workbook as a tab but also have some default menu items displaying even after setting the StratFromScratch property to true.

Please help where you can.

Thanks

Hi,

I have extended the griview to open in edit mode for all of the rows. After changing in few cells (text boxes) in some of the rows, I want to know which row has how many columns changed by the user. If no cell is changed in the row, the row number should not be returned.

Can any one help me to know which are the cells that changed when the Gridview is in edit mode. Any poniters or hints will help.

Thannks in advance!

Hi I am creating a Student Registration Form in windows application,
i want to generate a Registration Number to the Student after completing the
Form. The Number should be unique.

Thanks in advance

If you want a unique number, how about using GUID. It's simple and unique.

Thank u for your answer................
I am not aware of GUID, Can u give idea how to use it

string myGuid = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();

"myGuid" is always unique.

HI I run the code with GUID the value is too long "2d89b36d-39fd-4ac7-9cb4-bf0d3768a1c6"

I need to display and use only Eight Digits.......
pls give some other idea

How about just increasing the number:

Student 1 : 00000001
Student 2 : 00000002
...
Student 99999999 : 99999999

If you want to add a new student, just get the record from database.
For example, the last record is number "10".
Then just give number "11" to the new student.
It's so easy.

The right way is to add a number automatically in database. It increase the number automatically
and the number is a primary key. That means the number is unique.

I would suggest storing the number in a file outside your app and then read that number when processing a form. Once form has been processed just update the number to the next. This is how I currently do it to store version numbers for batch files generated from my apps.

Excellence is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.

int i = 1
.
.
.
i = i+1

if you close and open it again, then it will start from 1. so it wont work ypki! (for this we have to save it in view state)

Are you storing the information in a database? If so, get the database to create the id for you. Make the primary key (the registration number) an identity column and your registration number will be generated upon insertion to the database.

If you storing the information in some other manner, you'll need to just build a counter to increase the registration number by some amount (could be 1, could be more in order to validate a number as a valid registration number and avoid typos) each time. If this is a serious application then you'll need to make sure you do this in a common place (singleton) and that this action is threadsafe.

Rob Philtop is correct.

Hello,
I want to edit an existing app.config file with a modified url. The URL points to an intranet site which fetches list of documents.
If i copy the link from address bar(correct address) and paste in app.config to replace the existing url, i get errors. It says to use ; after some some particular words and if i do so, it says that entity not defined.

The updated URL is like this
http://XYZ/TestSoftware/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__all__&product=Test%3A+Application&content=

And the words are query_format,order, bug_status, product, content.

What to do?

Thanks in advance.
